I did some other tests:

1 Loading amdgpu early in the grub
══════════════════════════════════

  ┌────
  │ GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES="amdgpu ...
  └────
Listing 1: Adding amdgpu as preloaded module in `/etc/default/grub' does not have an effect (blank screen, no cryptsetup prompt)


2 Removing amdgpu
═════════════════

  ┌────
  │ MODULES=()
  └────
Listing 2: Removing amdgpu in `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf' and uninstalling `xf86-video-amdgpu' shows up to some lines of OpenRC.
  ┌────
  │ # pacman -Rnucs xf86-video-amdgpu
  └────


2.1 Adding `nomodeset' to the kernel line
─────────────────────────────────────────

Adding `nomodeset' to the kernel line eventually clears the screen and shows a static underscore at the top left corner. If I type-in my user password (with the blank screen) and follow the process to shutdown as if I had logged in (without being able to see anything), the computer actually shuts down. That indicates that the boot process completes, but I have nothing on screen except for the underscore.
